Give Them Their Due.

]. @. Mettlen, Co. III, 63d H., Vansburg Kan,
wishes that Grover Cleveland and Commissioner
Sparks could see the old soldiers in the West
holding down their land to keep it from blow
ing away, and fighting prairie fires, and they
might think the veterans deserved more than
81 or 81 a month pension.
A. b. Lee, 10th ILL.,, Caldwell, Kan, cannot
understand how man with any patriotic I'M
pulse or kindly feeling for the old soldiers can
express the sentiments that Bragg did in his
speeches in Congress. The cOmrade writes an
excellent article, in which he cites many facts
which refute etfectually the statements made
by Bragg, and we regret that the enormous
pressure upon our columns will not permit the
publication of the article in full.
ThOs. L. Buxton, Co. II, 10th Kan, Grange
vile, Mo-, is very glad to see the comrades
standing 80 solidly together and demanding
full justice from the Government The money
kings and the soldier hating class do not realize
the benefits which accrued to them from the
sufferings and services of the soldiers.
III. Berkeley, Co. G, 29th Wis, Ohiowa, Neb.,
thinks that the veto of the pension bill has
opened the way for better and more equitable
measure. He thinks there is no doubt that
bounty-jumpers and others who did the cOun-
try no service and are not entitled to receive
benefits are at present swelling the pension
rolls, while many deserving veterans who
fought to the end and are broken down in
health from wounds and disease 90 unrewarded.
Andrew j. Mails, Bibb. Texas, says the SOL
diers were as honorable men as the officers, and
should not be treated as though they were liars,
swindlers and deadbeats. The soldiers have a
remedy in the ballOt-bOx. and he hopes they
will avail themselves of it.

"INFLUENCE OF THE SPIRIT"
Sermon by Rev. n. L. Atwood, Yesterday
Morning.

Sermon by Rev. n. L. Atwood, Yesterday
Morning.
The much cOntroverted question of the
influence of the Holy Spirit was ably ex-
pounded by the Rev. n. l.. Atwood, OF the
Disciples church, yesterday morning.
The passages of Scripture where the Com
forter or Holy Spirit is spoken of were
read and its influence on the sinner more
particularly considered. In the Bible we
find that God has spoken to us through
four agencies: First-By direct speaking,
as He did to Adam, Noah and Abraham,
second, through the mouths of the pro-
phets; third, by His Son to the Apostles,
and fourthly, through the Apostles. God
never, by His Spirit, influenced any one
to do anything but by speaking And
they spake as the Spirit gave them utter
anee." No one has ever been influenced
or controlled by mysterious or magnetic
power to become Christians. Attention
was called to the incident of the CONVEX
sion of the three thousand on the day of
PentecOSt and what the Spirit
did there. It will be seen
by reading the second chapter of Acts
that the Holy Ghost did not fall upon the
people, but that it used the mouths of the
Apostles to convince them that Jesus
Christ was the Messiah. II is wrong to
suppose the Holy Ghost will come upon
us ~ 3 magnetic or electric influence.
To enlarge upon this point, the case Of
Philip and the Eunuch was called to mind.
Here we find that the angel OF The Lord
told Philip to go toward the South"
which be did, and fell in with the Eth
Opian, and preached unto him Jesus, as
the Spirit gave him utterance. So we see
that the Spirit only used the mouth of
Philip to convince this eunuch that Christ
was the Messiah; therefore, the influence
came in an indirect way and left the audi
tor choose for himself whether he would
accept Christ or not.
